Without „stop;“ at the end and if you had a second rule like for example:
if header :is ["from","bcc","to"] [“Email-Address-one”, ”Email-Address-Two”, ”and so on”] {
  fileinto „.\Different-FolderName“;
}

the Mail would get copied in BOTH folders: „Magic-FolderName“ AND Different-FolderName.

If you want to STOP further proccessing of that mail, once it gets proccessed by a rule the first time, you use „stop;“ in the rule.
This means, even if a further rule would match the mail, it will not get proccessed by that rule anymore.
